Best of Boston

This North Shore micro chain has a motto: You belong here. And with a vast menu of classes beyond barre for exercisers of all stripes—from “abs and ass" to “mom + baby barre"—they deliver on that message. Each class offers a precise but non-intimidating goal (enhance cardio function, restore balance), demystifying the workout process for first-timers. Even more accessible? A large library of on-demand virtual courses for members who prefer to work out at a place (and time) of their choosing.
